Bookish Matters

The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.

  1. Does booze really helps writers? I tried it with one of my drawings and discovered that I am unable to draw detail while drunk O_O like things go all kittywampus and I can't seem to focus my eyes.

  2. Are you suggesting that Kate Beaton was drunk when she drew these comics? Or that Jane Austen was drunk while writing her novels? I guess there is a bottle in that last frame.

    I, personally, have never written nor drew while drunk, as far as I remember. I don't think it would help.
